Fulham manager Marco Silva has mainly used Saša Lukić as a substitute since he arrived at the club from Torino last January.
The midfielder has 24 league appearances and it includes eight league starts, out of which four of them are from this season.
Napoli are interested in bringing the Fulham player back to Italy, but TuttoMercatoWeb state a deal remains complicated.
The Serie A winners have already seen their proposals of a loan deal [€2.5m fee] with an option to buy set at €9m get rejected by the London club.
TMW say Lukić is a ‘non-EU player’ when it comes to Serie A registration rules, therefore, the Naples club can’t sign him as of now, as they have already registered Ivorian Hamed Traorè, who arrived on loan from AFC Bournemouth earlier this month.
They add the Fulham midfielder will ‘almost certainly’ be not sent on loan. Even though he intends to leave the club to play more, TMW state he’ll stay at Fulham at least until the end of this season, barring ‘sensational twists’.
